I am not sure on how precise this page is, but can we really completely discard what it says? About users' complaints, it was exposed in different places, but I can bring some of them here. This one [2] is a discussion on Village Pump, just like this other [3]. Both mention CAPTCHA and the increasing of vandalism after its removal, some impressions on how it became more difficult to deal with the ammount of edits when watching recent changes, and raises the possibility that we may be missing some vandalisms as we are unable to watch them all. Also on our Village Pump [4], some users brought their impression on the increasing of vandal edits. I am not able to resume them all as they are a bit large. I am afraid that we have no time to wait months (or years) until fix this and that to have a number then decide what to do, while vandalisms are happening right now and if we are not being able to stop them, they are being publicized on wiki with nobody to remove them in time. It is clear for everyone that watches recent changes as a routine that the ammount of edits are a lot higher. It is not emotion; it is the statement of users that are on wiki daily and have no obscure reason to ask for the restoration of CAPTCHA. We are watching wiki being flooded with vandalism and we recognize we are failing to stop it.
